Men bedders.
And I’m not kidding about loud and glorious. I indulged my imagination some time ago and came up with an organizational name idea: JOYOUS — Jesus Overcoming Your Obsession with Unnatural Sex. Let’s have some glory parades.
But I don’t network with these folks. So in a way it’s moot.
I don’t know about any connection of the Greek “arseno-”(meaning of male adult humans, or men) and what you might be thinking of as the root of “arson” which is from the Latin “ardeo-”.
Arsenokoitai simply means “men-bedders.” I don’t know if Greek had a word for buggery, and if memory serves, a common Greek mode of carrying out the “men-bedding” act didn’t involve buggery. I don’t want to say a lot more lest I get explicit. Suffice it to say it’s warped. And it represents Satan preying on the spiritual needs of people and turning them every which way but free to follow the Lord.
I’m starting to wonder if we at FR haven’t been infiltrated to the point that we have more idiots responding to articles than we have folks with brains. After reading a number of responses, it seems that folks missed the gauntlet the author threw down and decided to “focus” on some really irrelevant BS.
“when you have thousands upon thousands of laws; everyone becomes a lawbreaker eventually.”

Exactly, it is literally impossible to BE a “law abiding citizen”! Those who claim to be only imagine that they are, they may ATTEMPT to be such but it cannot be done. Even when the only thing you consider law is the ten commandments it is extremely difficult to abide by all ten. Only the delusionary can imagine that he can abide by the laws of man so reasonable people try to follow moral law as they understand it without that much regard for legality. It is not man’s law that prevents me from becoming a thief or murderer, it is the teachings of my parents, school teachers, aunts, uncles and all the others who taught me their understanding of moral law, not legal matters. Those who have no moral code at all are restrained only by the possibility of arrest, imprisonment or death at the hands of their victims or law ENFORCEMENT. The law itself restrains them not in the least.
Our current government is not hampered at all by law, there is only a pretense of the rule of law, in truth the government can be counted on to disregard the law whenever the law does not suit the current purpose. There may be a great shout of,”The law is settled” but this is done with total disregard of the fact that the “settled law” is in violation of the supreme law, the constitution. We now have three branches of government composed mostly of those who are quite willing to swear that the constitution includes two clauses which say in effect, “Do as you damned well please, all the rest of this document is merely for show.”
In short anyone who still believes that we are governed by the rule of law rather than the whims of weak, lazy, greedy scoundrels should be composing his letter to Santa with full expectation of receiving every toy on his list.
Thanks for explaining what you meant -- I didn't get your drift for a bit there.
